After completing my articles in 2005 i have been involved in the finance industry with experience in financial operations as well. I have a keen eye for improving systems and enjoy being analytical with Excel spreadsheets to generate reports and provide information to the Stakholders that can assist them in making better decisions. Currently i am busy with the Google Data Analytics course to add extra skills to my armour as an Accountant to aide the Stakeholders in their decision making processes which includes SQL, Tableau and Microsoft Power BI.I have started a Consulting business where i provide financial consulting to help businesses eliminate weaknesses and build on their strengths.
